In this study, in-depth site investigation related to design and construction of pile foundation was carried out, especially with respect to 103 large-scale bridges located in South Korea. As a result, the depths and location of investigation was unsatisfactory at the foundation investigation process. Moreover, pile load tests were not performed when the capacity of the file is calculated in planning phase, and it was difficult to determine the load capacity limit due to the fact that loading capacity was not specified in pile-loading test. The design criteria related to pile foundation does not reflect the reality of the construction site, and that causes over design, and economic inefficiency in budget. Therefore, the purposes of this study is to review case studies related to the bearing capacity of pile foundations and suggest improvements in the construction specifications.

Purpose: The area such as historic sites where distributed in the hills surrounded by the mountains in the past, if heavy rains occur, soil that distributed in the substructure of a sedimentary layer's permeability decreases therefore, water do not smoothly drainage and increases surface structures' moisture content. Therefore, many phenomena occur such as the muddy ground. This experiment tried to figure out the cause of poor drainage, predicting poor drainage system when rainfall occur. So not only the base of cultural properties distributed in the historic site, but also have big influences on the upper structure. Method: We are going to propose an improvement plan through the various sites exploration and the field permeability test. In addition, analyze interrelationship to figure out the cause of the poor drainage through monitoring under ground water. Conclusion: As the result of the experiment, the cause of the poor drainage system formed on shallow depth of ground level inside of a land. We can see that soil of surface and fill deposit permeability was in poor condition. Therefore, it was in very inappropriate hydrogeological condition when surface water permeate into the underground when rainfall occurs.

The important elements in pavement design criteria are the stress and strain distributions. To obtain reasonable stress and strain distribution, tire contact area and tire pressures are very important. This study presents a viscoelastic characterization of flexible pavement subjected to moving loads. During the test, both longitudinal and lateral strains were measured at the bottom of asphalt layers and in-situ measurements were compared with the results of numerical analysis. A 3-dimension finite element model was used to simulate each test section and a step loading approximation has been adopted to analyze the effect of a moving vehicle on pavement behaviors. For viscoelastic analysis, relaxation moduli, E(t), of asphalt mixtures were obtained from laboratory test. Field responses reveal the strain anisotropy (i.e., discrepancy between longitudinal and lateral strains), and the amplitude of strain normally decreases as the vehicle speed increases. In most cases, lateral strain was smaller than longitudinal strain, and strain reduction was more significant in lateral direction.

The resource-based estimating based on standard unit price of construction work was estimated by multiplying the price per standard unit of work on the amount of labor, material, equipment use time. However, limitation of the resource-based estimating way does not adequately reflect the actual transactions prices. On the subject of water tunnel excavation as a new attempt to overcome these limitations, this study analyzed productivity by work type into cutter inspection/ exchange, TBM maintenance, TBM inspection/refueling, subsequent installations, tramcar, operating change, a cave-underground reinforcement / rock reinforcement, safety / meetings and analyzed actual cost estimating and the net advance rate based on this analysis result. Actual cost estimating calculation approach presented in this study can be utilized as a useful tool to predict the actual cost estimating in the TBM water tunnels field.
